Wheat stripe rust resistance locus YR63 is a hot spot for evolution of defence genes – a pangenome discovery

Abstract Background Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), poses a threat to global wheat production. Deployment of widely effective resistance genes underpins management of this ongoing threat. This study focused on the mapping of stripe rust resistance gene YR63 from a P...
